Changes

Completely rewrote the doxywizard. Main changes:
- It is now based on Qt version 4. (4.3 or higher is required)
- Different layout that allows easy switching between wizard and expert mode, without losing settings.

- For HTML output, there is a button to show the results in the default browser.
- Option to change the default configuration that is used when you first start the wizard.
- Non-default options are shown with red label, and there is context menu to reset them back to the default.
Included Qt help update by Sebastian Pipping introducing three new options to define custom filter sections and attributes: QHP_CUST_FILTER_NAME, QHP_CUST_FILTER_ATTRS, QHP_SECT_FILTER_ATTRS.

Doxygen Release 1.5.7

(release date 28-9-2008)

Changes

The default CSS style sheet has been cleaned up and simplified, thanks to the work done by Quinn Taylor.

New features

Added new config options GENERATE_QHP which enables generating .qch (Qt compiled help) file via the Qt's qthelpgenerator tool (part of Qt 4.4+). This type of files can be read with Qt's Assisant to browse the documentation in a similar way as is possible with Microsoft's compiled HTML help (.chm). To further customize the output and run the help generator from within doxygen, the following options are available: QCH_FILE, QHP_NAMESPACE, QHP_VIRTUAL_FOLDER, QHG_LOCATION. Thanks to Sebastian Pipping for the patch.
Add new option SYMBOL_CACHE_SIZE to allow a different trade off between doxygen's memory usage and the amount of disk accesses.
id 532695: Added 3 new commands: \extends, \implements, and \memberof that allow object oriented constructs to be documented as such for languages that do not support it natively (e.g. C)
Added better support for one line comments after VHDL types.
Added new option LAYOUT_FILE which can be used to specify a layout template file that tells doxygen in which order to generate the output and which titles to use for headings and how the navigation index will look; Read this for more info. As a result the following options are now obsolete since they can now only be controlled via the layout file: DETAILS_AT_TOP, ALPHABETICAL_INDEX. The following options can also be set via the layout file, but for convenience and backward compatibility reasons they are still also part of the configuration file: SHOW_INCLUDE_FILES, SHOW_USED_FILES, CLASS_GRAPH, COLLABORATION_GRAPH, GROUP_GRAPHS, INCLUDE_GRAPH, INCLUDED_BY_GRAPH. Run doxygen with the -l option to generate the default layout file.
Included update for the Macedonian, Catalan, Brazilian, and Serbian translation and also support for Serbian with Cyrilic characters.

Doxygen Release 1.5.5

(release date 10-2-2008)

Changes

Pages created with @page are now chapters in the LaTeX and RTF output and treeviews, and directly follow the mainpage. Also the project name is not longer repeated for each chapter. This should make it more convenient to create normal, printable documentation with doxygen.
For dot graphs with an edge with more than ten labels, only the first ten are shown followed by an ellipsis; done to prevent very long dot runs resulting in unreadable graphs.
Use of pdflatex with hyperlinks is now the default.
id 511116: C++ preprocessor macro names are now replaced in the comments as well. For example, S and m are replaced in the comments for: #define C(S,m) /** container S */ struct S { /** value m */ int m; }
id 493923: The options SOURCE_BROWSER, CALL_GRAPH, CALLER_GRAPH, REFERENCES_RELATION, and REFERENCED_BY_RELATION can now be indepently enabled and disabled. By default the relations are now disabled.

New features

- GENERATE_DOCSET: enables/disables the feature
- DOCSET_FEEDNAME: sets the provider/suite name under which the set is listed.
- DOCSET_BUNDLE_ID: A unique name for the docset.
See the configuration file or manual for more details.
id 493467: Added compilation support 64bit Solaris machines in combination with Sun's own compiler (thanks to Heiko Jansen).

Doxygen Release 1.5.3

(release date 27-7-2007)

Changes

When OPTIMIZE_OUTPUT_FOR_C is enabled then a struct definition of the form typedef struct _S { ... } S_t will be shown in the output as a struct of type S_t and the typedef itself is omitted (previousily _S was shown as well as a typedef of the form typedef _S S_t).
Improved the line-breaking rules for members whose return types have many characters (for example a function returning a pointer to a template class).
Multiple brief and detailed descriptions are now possible. It is still not recommended to make use of them, but at least no documentation is silently hidden when there are two brief or two detailed descriptions for the same entity.
Improved dot layout control and page sizing to better fit images on the screen and paper.

New features

Added support for aliases with arguments, see the manual for more information.
Added HTML_DYNAMIC_SECTIONS option which, when enabled, will produce sections in the HTML output that can be expanded/collapsed. Currently used for diagrams and graphs.
Added support for type constraints as available in the C# language ("where" clause)
id 332263: Added new option EXTRACT_ANON_NSPACES that when set to YES will extract the contents of anonymous namespaces and show then in the output.

id 458749: Undocumented constructors/destructors inside an undocumented member group were not visible in the output.

Doxygen Release 1.5.2

(release date 4-4-2007)

Changes

The options MAX_DOT_GRAPH_WIDTH, MAX_DOT_GRAPH_HEIGHT, and MAX_DOT_GRAPH_DEPTH have been replaced by a single option DOT_GRAPH_MAX_NODES, which can be used to limit the size of a graph indirectly, by specifying the maximum amount of nodes in the graph. The main advantage is that this can be computed much faster; dot has to be run only once per graph and never on graphs with more than the specified amount of nodes. Note that doxygen will always render the root node and its direct children even when DOT_GRAPH_MAX_NODES = 0.
Parameters names are now copied to reimplemented functions, avoiding warnings about missing or wrong parameter names when INHERIT_DOCS = YES.

New features

id 150916,159291,166209,330109,396316 Doxygen now uses UTF-8 internally for all strings and uses iconv to recode the input to UTF-8. For HTML, LaTeX and man pages the output is now always UTF-8. For RTF the encoding is local and depends on the code page specified in the translator. The config option USE_WINDOWS_ENCODING has been removed. A new config option INPUT_ENCODING has been added which can be used to specify the encoding of the input. Another config option DOXYFILE_ENCODING can be used to specify the encoding of the config file itself.
Added support for message sequence charts (using mscgen). For this two new commands have been added: \msc and \endmsc (similar to \dot..\enddot), and a new config option MSCGEN_PATH (similar to DOT_PATH) See the manual and website for more info.
Added support for C++/CLI. To enable it set CPP_CLI_SUPPORT to YES in the config file (thanks to Ben Voigt for doing a lot of the work).
IGNORE_PREFIX now also works for function/members names when shown in the various indices.
Doxygen will show a tooltip in the HTML output for links to classes, namespaces, and members with the brief description (including dot graphs and source code).
id 321575: Added a new config option EXCLUDE_SYMBOLS which can be used to exclude certain namespaces/classes/functions from the output by specifying their name (which may include wildcards).
id 364536: Included patch by Ben Voigt which adds syntax highlight support for several (managed) C++ keywords.
id 419349: Added two LaTeX layout enhancements provided by Stefan Pawig.

Doxygen Release 1.5.0

(release date 16-10-2006)

Changes

cleaned up the internal structures to make them smaller, and made doxygen use a temporary file to store the parse results (instead of keeping them in memory), which will further reduce the memory usage, especially for large projects, and is a first step towards incremental parsing.

New features

Added example application that shows how to configure and run doxygen from within an application and use the information collected by doxygen without also generating the output (see addon/doxyapp).
id 322467: Sections produces by \note, \warning, \remarks etc, now have a class label in the generated HTML (<dl> tag) so you can give them a distinct style using a non-default stylesheet (i.e. using HTML_STYLESHEET).

Doxygen Release 1.4.5

(release date 4-10-2005)

Changes

Changed to way the index looks (I hope you like it!). It now is a list of items styled (with CSS) as a row of tabs. Also class/namespace/file related items are now grouped together and presented as a second row of tabs to prevent clutter (the latter is based on the suggestions/patch in bug report 162968). Note that if you use a custom HTML header you need to add <link href="tabs.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> to the head section!
Copydoc now copies the brief description as well.

New features

id 306889: Added new config option BUILTIN_STL_SUPPORT. When enabled, doxygen will assume that STL classes exist (without the need to include the STL headers as INPUT). This helps with matching of argument lists for function declarations and definitions and also helps to improve the collaboration and inheritance diagrams that involve STL classes.

```
         ##

	 #
       
```
or you can rely on Python docstrings. This code uses the new parser interface and was based on the work done by a group of students as part of a compiler design project.

Updated Doxygen.dsp (thanks to Gerik Rhoden).
For a word marked with a #, the # is now also removed when no link could be generated.
Using '<' (or '\<') in a <pre> section cause '$<$' to appear in the Latex output.

Doxygen Release 1.4.2

(release date 28-3-2005)

Changes

If the class/namespace/file member indexes get too long they are now automatically split over multiple pages (one page per index letter).
Internal: I've split the input scanner (scanner.l) in a part that scans the supported programming languages and passes the comment blocks to a second scanner. This should clean up the code a lot and make the handling of structural commands (like \class and \section) more consistent. It is also a first step towards supporting dedicated scanners for other programming languages.
Made doxygen parse .as files (Action Script) as Java code.

New features

Added a new option SEPARATE_MEMBER_PAGES. When enabled doxygen will generate a separate page for each documented member, instead of putting all members on the class/file/namespace page. An index for other members of the same compound is rendered on the left hand side of the page.
Added new command \subpage that can be used to build a hierarchy of pages. For pages this is more convenient than using \defgroup and \ingroup. See the documentation more details and an example.
Included man pages for doxygen and doxywizard.
Language updates for Czech, Swedish, Russian, Italian, Catalan, German, Brazilian, Korean, Ukrainian, Romanian, Croatian and Chinese,

Doxygen Release 1.4.1

(release date 11-1-2005)

Bug fixes

id 163058,163401: Due to a memory corruption bug doxygen could crash under certain conditions (the Windows binary was the most sensitive to this).
id 163003,163495: Doxygen crashed when GROUP_GRAPH and UML_LOOK were enabled.
Book icon in the treeview is now clickable and has the appropriate action (thanks to Will Bateman).

Doxygen Release 1.4.0

(release date 31-12-2004)

Changes

In the HTML help output (.chm files) the index items with only one subitem are now collapsed into one item (thanks to Antony Pranata for the patch).
Some minor tweaks to the style sheet.
@relates can now not only be used for functions, but also for other members (i.e. enums, types and variables).
Static members do have have explicit "static" in the declaration part of the documentation. This is useful for grouping where it is otherwise not obvious that a member is static.
typedefs and enumeration are no longer shown in the "referenced by" list as these are types (based on patch by Antoine Tandin).
Make configure script use solaris-g++ by default (Sun's own compiler generates faulty code for doxygen).

New features

Included language update for Serbian, German, and Korean.
For directories dependency graphs are now generated (controlled by the DIRECTORY_GRAPH switch). For a given directory, the graph will show its parent directory and the sub directories as nested boxes. For the directory and its sub directories it will show the relations with other directories. Relations are based on #include relations of the files contained in the directories. Each dependency arrow has an associated number. This number indicates the number of different #include relations. Clicking on the number will show a page with the exact #include relations (the latter is for the HTML output only).
Added \cond and \endcond commands, which can be used to (conditionally) exclude a part of a file. See the manual for an example.
Added "-d ExtCmd" debug option, which when used shows what doxygen will execute when invoking an external command (such as dot).
New option WARN_NO_PARAMDOC that warns about the absence of function parameter or return type documentation.
Nested classes are now listed in their containing class.
Extended the \f command to support different environments, i.e. \f{eqnarray*} for equation arrays. The end command is \f}. The documentation has an example.
Added support for group dependency graphs (thanks to a patch by Antoine Tandin): New option: GROUP_GRAPHS
New option DOT_TRANSPARENT to enable dot graph with a transparent background. Thanks to Maik Hinrichs for the patch.
New option FILE_VERSION_FILTER which allows an external tool to provide version information per file, which is then used in the file documentation. Thanks to Maik Hinrichs for the patch.
id 162295: New option DOT_MULTI_TARGETS which when set to YES, will run dot with multiple output files if possible. This was added to support older version of dot (<=1.8.10) which do not support multiple output targets. If you use a recent version of dot, you probably want to enable this (default is NO).

Bug fixes

id 119868: Removed warning when </li> ended a @c or similar command.
id 120367: \~lang didn't work correctly around brief descriptions and certain commands. It is now implemented as an early filter operation like \cond.

id 151012: <td> tag in HTML function documentation missed 'class="md"'
id 154689: Wrong link to members of namespaces imported from tag files when CASE_SENSE_NAMES is set to NO.

id 154755: Files were missing from Doxygen.dsp project file. (thanks to Gerik Rhoden).
id 154758: Fixed typedef resolution bug that could crash doxygen (thanks to Gerik Rhoden for the analysis and fix).
id 154862: Fixed problem matching array parameters that include template parameters as the array size.
id 154863: Fixed parsing problem in the preprocessor when an expression contained the division operator.
id 154469: Referring to Objective-C messages was broken if the full scope was used.
id 155086: Typedef for member-function pointers of template classes not recognized
id 155272: Image filenames in RTF output were not quoted causing problem with custom images whose name contained spaces.
id 155322: Fixed parse problem for php code containing '#'.
id 155224: Java interfaces did't resolve across packages w/o FQN.
id 156411: Return type of a function was not hyperlinked in some cases (typical with nested namespaces or Java packages).
id 156445: function seen first in header and doc'ed in source broke autolinking depending on the order of the input.
id 157085: Autolinks for const/volatile operators didn't work.
id 157229: Upper case letters in \page "" breaks title on page.
id 157433: Multi-variable declarations were not parsed properly.
id 157485: @todo's inside the body of a function were not handled properly.
id 158961: Set EXTRACT_ALL to NO resulted in no directory information unless the directory and files were documented. This is now controlled by SHOW_DIRECTORIES.
id 158481: I did some memory usage analysis with valgrind's massif tool, which indicated that a lot of memory was used by QCString objects. This made me decide to reimplement the class and optimize it for memory usage. The resulting class saves a "new" operation of 12 bytes per string object, which seems to reduce the overall amount of memory used by doxygen by a factor 2 to 3! The implementation seemed more expense to use (as it always copies the content instead of sharing it), but the performance has improved nevertheless (probably because "new" is much more expensive operation than copying small strings).
id 158637: Links to classes in brief description in index pages were wrong when CREATE_SUBDIRS was set to YES.
id 158884: "typedef [something] enum" in IDL was not handled properly.
id 159487: @ref's to Objective-C class categories were not possible.

id 160931: Made configure script use /bin/bash as it apparently didn't work with /bin/sh anyway.
id 161048: Latex output for directories could contain unescaped underscores when SHOW_DIRECTORIES was set to YES.
id 161167: /// \file was not parsed properly.
id 161247: If CALL_GRAPH was enabled references were shown even if REFERENCES_RELATION was set to NO.
id 161320: An incorrect line number was given for inherited comments which have an error.
id 161321: Fixed problem parsing '"' in PHP code.
